RETURNING TO WELLNESS
A group for anyone diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, Multi-system Atrophy, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy or similar disorders, plus carers/friends
We are initiating a group of like-minded people who are, or have been, challenged with Parkinson’s disease, Multi-system Atrophy, Progressive Supranuclear Palsy or similar disorders. The group is open to carers and friends as well.
This is a WELLNESS SUPPORT GROUP – not a disease support group – so we want our focus to be on what helps us become well, peaceful, and have fun doing it.
The intention is to share our experiences of moving towards wellness. We can discuss anything that helps us, or things we’ve tried that haven’t helped. We can share challenges and solutions, joy and sadness, optimism and frustration.
From time to time, we may invite a speaker to present new ideas, or a new view of old ideas. That is up to you. We want to know what YOU want to talk about, share and hear during our regular meetings.
We plan monthly meetings at our home/clinic: 10 Amberley Court, Bulleen (Melways 32 J11; car park and entrance at rear of property).
Our next three meetings are:
Saturday 19th July, 16th August & 20th September at 2 pm,
where we will talk about what you have told us you want to discuss..
There is no charge for the group, but if you wish to donate a gold coin to help cover, tea, power, toilet paper etc, we will be delighted. Please bring a small plate of healthy snacks to share (perhaps enough for you and one other).
Please let us know by telephone, email or mail at the addresses on this website if you wish to attend our meetings so we can have enough chairs. The response from our first meeting was wonderful and very encouraging.
Yours sincerely,
John Coleman and Nichol Hebert
